1909-S Indian Eagle NGC MS65

Sirhc

In the late 1970s, the discovery of a hoard of about 60 1909-S ten- dollar pieces was sold intact by Ron Gillio to Jim Halperin of New England Rare Coin Galleries. Previously, this issue was virtually impossible to obtain in Uncirculated condition. Since then, a few other small hoards have been found, substantially raising the Mint State population. Despite these discoveries, the ’09-S is still very scarce in Mint State, with most pieces residing in the MS62 to MS64 range. It remains one of the most difficult issues in the entire series to locate as a Gem, and in finer grades. The NGC population is 14 with 6 graded higher.

Highly Vibrant 1915-S Pan Pac $50 Round NGC MS62

Sirhc

The Panama-Pacific Exposition was authorized to sell up to 1,500 examples each of both the Round and Octagonal versions of the Pan-Pac fifties, and the Mint struck 1510 examples of the Round version, including 10 examples for the Assay Commission. Unfortunately, the high cost of the coins ($100 per coin) discouraged all but the most dedicated collectors, and only 483 specimens of the Round design were sold. The remaining 1,017 coins were melted after the close of the exposition. These rare gold commemoratives are avidly sought-after in today’s market. If you’ve never held one of these massive and extremely impressive coins in -hand, you owe it to yourself to do so. The NGC population is 54 (four of which are designated “Star”) with 30 graded higher.  The one offered here is flashy and surprisingly nice looking for assigned grade.

Listed at $86,400 in the CDN CPG and $90,000 in the NGC price guide.

Rare 1927-S Saint Gaudens Double Eagle NGC MS62+

Sirhc

Along with its famed Denver Mint brethren, the 1927-S represents one of the first late-date melt rarities in the series. Branch mint double eagles from the 1920s tend to be elusive across the board (aside from the 1923-D), but the 1927 issues take it to the next level. The 1927-S was struck to the extent of 3.1 million coins, but that figure is entirely misleading when it comes to estimating the issue’s availability. According to the research of Dr. Charles W. Green in the late 1940s, only 3,750 pieces were officially dispersed from Treasury vaults. A small number made their way to Europe where they were preserved until being resold on the American market in the mid-20th century. The vast majority of coins that remained in the United States after the Gold Recall of 1933 were converted into gold bars. Probably no more than 250 pieces and possibly as few as 200 coins survive.

The NGC population is 39 with 45 graded higher.

Listed at $54,000 (in MS62) in the CDN CPG and $53,500 (in MS62+) in the NGC price guide.

1866 Motto Seated Liberty Half Dollar NGC PR66 Cameo

Sirhc

Only 725 proof Seated Liberty half dollars were minted in 1866, the first year to include the motto IN GOD WE TRUST as part of the reverse design. Proofs are seldom encountered today, but may still be more available than Mint State business strikes. This particualr example is brilliant and color-free, but for some traces of peripheral toning on each side. The NGC population is just 2 with 3 graded higher

Very Rare 1847 Restrike Braided Hair Half Cent NGC PR65RB

Sirhc

The 1847 Braided Hair half cent is an elusive proof-only issue. Both Originals and Restrikes are known. Originals are identified by large berries in the wreath, while Restrikes have small berries in the wreath. There are two variations of proof restrikes. First Restrikes have a doubled T in CENT, and for 1847 are extremely rare. Second Restrikes have short die marks over RICA of AMERICA. This offering is an example of the Second Restrike. In hand, it’s noticeably lighter, as well as more colorful than seen in our images. The NGC population is only 2 with 4 graded higher.

Tied for Highest Graded – 1880 Seated Liberty Half Dollar NGC MS67

Sirhc

The years from 1879 through 1890 saw skimpy half dollar mintages at the Philadelphia Mint (and no half dollar mintages elsewhere) as the nation’s coin factories concentrated on increasing the glut of unpopular, largely unused Morgan dollars mandated by cronyism and politics (pardon the redundancy) in the form of the Bland-Allison Act of 1878. The Philadelphia Mint struck 8,400 business strikes and 1,355 proofs in 1880 . This example displays color-free surfaces and is tied with five others for the highest graded at NGC.

$10 Indian Rarity – 1930-S Indian Eagle NGC MS65

Sirhc

 The 1930-S is one of the premier keys in the Indian eagle series. Only 96,000 pieces were struck, most of which remained in Mint vaults until the Gold Recall order of 1933, after which they were destroyed. Only a small number of pieces were ever available to collectors through traditional business, either via the Mint Cashier or distribution to federal reserve banks.
In their gold coin Encyclopedia, Garrett and Guth write, “In terms of overall rarity, this date ranks a little behind the 1920-S, with just a few hundred known in all, and those are scattered across the grading spectrum.” By population figure, this assessment of the 1930-S issue’s rarity is true, although it is not representative of the real-world availability of this issue. Any Gem example is a major rarity and finer pieces are prohibitively rare.

As compared to our images, in-hand, this Gem is lighter in hue, tends more towards-yllow gold (rather than orange-gold) and is noticeably more lustrous. The NGC population is 11 with 3 graded higher.

None Graded Higher –  Blazing Gem -1903 Liberty Double Eagle NGC MS66

Sirhc

The 1903 Liberty double eagle claims a nominal mintage of 287,270 pieces. Like other high-denomination gold issues of the time, the 1903 was primarily used in foreign trade or as currency reserves. Beginning after World War II, a number of coins surfaced in European and Central American holdings, increasing the supply of attractive specimens in today‘s market. The repatriated coins are often found in Mint State condition, but they usually exhibit some surface marks from rough storage and transport. At the MS66 grade level, the 1903 is a very rare issue. The NGC population is just 16 with none graded higher.

1892 Liberty Double Eagle NGC AU58

Sirhc

This Philadelphia issue is a standout rarity within the latter part of the double eagle series, boasting the lowest mintage of any date from that point through 1907, when the Liberty Head motif was replaced with Saint-Gaudens’ design. Only 4,430 circulation strikes were manufactured, plus 93 proofs. Although the 1892 did not see much circulation and was likely subject to exportation overseas, examples are rarely seen in Uncirculated condition. The NGC population is 30 with 38 graded higher.
